Ruination were a bit of an international super group or certainly a North American super group. The band featured Chris Colohon from the Swarm/Cursed fame and Mike Haliechuk who went on to play in Fucked Up. The band also featured Andy Dempsz of Bloodpact/Earthmover fame and Ebro of Charles Bronson/Los Crudos fame. That's a lot of fame. This interview was conducted at a Tragedy show on December 19, 2000 and was printed in the May 2001 issue of MRR. Unfortunately this issue is not avilable as a...

Destined For Asssimilation (DFA) had come through town from Saskatoon. This was excited because a new label at the time, Ugly Pop, had just released a 12" by the band. It was ferocious unleashing the spirit of crossover legends of the past like the Accused and beyond Possession. And the band played upstairs instead of Studio 3 downstairs. This issue also contains reviews and show listings from back in July 2002. Topics: DFA, -ZINE ARCHIVE

There was some kind of ban on Nomeansno that went back to Tim's fight with Jello. Nomeansno were on Alternative Tentacles which was Jello's label so as a consequence MRR has never doen an interview with the band. And Nomeasno have done loads so it seems weird. This interview isn't an in depth one but it does capture the band at a period of time. the interview was done in Chicago at the Fireside Bowl and appeared in the April 2001 edition of MRR (#215). This issue of the zine is still available... Topics: ZINE ARCHIVE, MRR, NOMEANSNO

I did an interview with Gord from Deranged Records when the label was first starting out. Gord and I were roomates at the time and we helped each other out on all sorts of projects related to the scene. I thought his label was doing great things and continues to this day. That's a sign of a good label.

I had done a couple of record label profiles for MRR by this point. I loved 625 Productions and every release Max had ever put out. He wanted to get a profile in for MRR. I think the folks at MRR were bugging him for one. So we joined forces and started compiling Max's thoughts on his discographies, re-issues and brand of fast core inspired hardcore. This interview came out in issue #237, which came out in February 2003. Unfortunately this issue is sold out of back issues so here is a PDF of...
